Welcome
Welcome to the Saint Paul Public Library's new and improved online catalog and website! Check out some of the key features below and start exploring today!
Features
Search now works like the rest of the web. Catalog searches now use natural language detection to ensure that when you search with keywords like“new music” or “kids movies,” you will easily find what you are looking for. Filters help you narrow in on exactly the items you want from the library.
Easily browse new titles, award winners, and lists created by library staff and other readers. Ratings, comments, and tags help you evaluate and choose the perfect book, DVD, or CD for you from the library's collection.
The new online catalog features personal recordkeeping tools: My Profile, My Shelves, My Lists, and more.
